Hello Guys, 
I´m planning to do a leg lengthening at January next year. But im not sure right now if i should lengthen my femur or tibia.
Femur length in (cm) : 41
Tibia length in (cm) : 37
I want to go for like 5 cm. I often read here that femur and tibia not should have the equal length or tibia dont should be longer than the femur. Could you make some suggestions for which one i should go?

Thanks for your answer Ghostfish.
I think money dont should be priority number one while planning a LL. But i only want to go for one surgery. I´m just asking because I don´t want to ruin the femur/tibia ratio. So is it better to lengthen my tibia and getting an equal length of femur and tibia or i should go for femur .
Does sb. know how much longer in (cm) femur is compared to the tibia?
